Umm Suqeim Hotels

A big thank you to the front desk staff, the duty manager on the 11th/12th April, Ismail, Chy, you made our stay a delight. The restaurant staff need to be a little more attentive, very distracted somehow!

Have kids? Like to be active? Jumeirah Beach is for you. The service is exceptional. The facilities are excellent. I am a ultra marathon runner and the onsite gym is one of the best I have seen at a hotel. There is an outdoor 25m pool as well. The Sinbad Kid's Club is as good as it gets: it's air-conditioned, thoughfully conceived and there are tailored programs for different ages. Children from 2+ allowed (that's rare in Dubai). Bouncy castle, indoor sand pit, ball pit, theatre room, activities galore. There are more than enough staff; all are very well trained and put both children and parents at ease. Babysitting was available immediately on the three occasions I requested it; the staff were more than happy the help on short notice. One of the added benefits of staying at JBH is the free access to the Wild Wadi water park on the premises. The park opens at 10am, but the public crowds don't start piling in until around 12. My daughter and I went on all the best rides for two hours with no queues - easily the equivalent of a full day at any major water park in the US or UK. Worth staying for a night or two for that alone:)… If culture and personal enlightenment is what you're after, this is not the place for you. Dubai, for that matter, is not for you. This is a hotel that thrives on meeting your every desire, that's sole purpose is to make you relax and feel cared for in a comfortable environment.

Out of this world. Burj al arab is amazing. The simplest suite has a staircase in it. Everything's so clean, the butlers and staff are so accommodating and sweet. You have to eat at al mahara, besides the food and drinks being amazing, you'll be distracted the entire time by the beautiful aquarium and the crazy looking fish named mr george. depending on the season and when you book, it may be pricey, but its so worth it and you wont regret it. Trust me! Staying in this hotel is an experience on its own and definitely one you need to do once in your lifetime. You also have access to madinat next door which are different hotels and the beach, the souk and more.
